In the Middle Ages, it was a staple for almost everyone, either worn on its own or as a base layer. If you're wearing a helmet or a mail coif, this piece is essential for stopping your hair from getting snagged in the metal and making the fit much more comfortable.
We use breathable cotton for this coif to help keep your head cool when you're active. It secures with two simple ties under the chin, so it won't slide around while you move. While it's styled after high-medieval fashion, these stayed in use all the way through the late medieval period, so it fits a huge range of kits.
The seams are sewn flat to prevent those annoying pressure marks you normally get from wearing headgear stacked up. It also acts as a sweat barrier, which helps keep your more expensive hats and helmets looking good for longer.
Highlights
- Common headwear for everyone, from knights to peasants, throughout the Middle Ages.
- Breathable cotton helps manage heat and moisture during long events
- Under-armor protection stops your hair from pulling in mail or helmets
- Flat seams stay comfortable even when you're wearing heavy gear on top
- Easy to wash and maintain after a weekend in the dirt
- A period-fluid piece, that while in this style was normalized in the 12th century, was worn well into the late medieval period.
The way the human children look at you, you would assume they have never seen an elf before. Granted, it isn’t often that you travel into cities. You prefer the tranquil sounds of the forest, away from the stench and chaos of busy human streets.
However, you have business with a certain wizard in town. So while your elven garb--decorated Fur Hood, tunic, and weapons--cause you to stand out amongst the crowd, you continue without raising a fuss. After all, they are only short-lived creatures. They don’t know any better than to stare.
DETAILS
Epic Armoury’s Fur Hood is an embroidered mantle with a long hood tail. The mantle covers the shoulders, keeping the upper chest warm while the hood protects the head and face from harsh wind. Elvish embroidery and polyester fur trim embellishes this hood, adding great detail to the felted wool. The inside is lined with soft, comfortable cotton.
Hoods are great garments for rounding off character looks, and the Fur Hood is a stylish garment that especially fits a roguish or elven character. Adjust the hood’s facial opening with flat split-leather cord lacing at the throat.
HISTORY
- One of the oldest garments known to humanity
- Common fashion in medieval Europe, especially with a hood
One belt not holding up your chainmail pants?
TRY TWO!
The street is a hard place to conduct business, but it’s a way of life you’ve become very good at keeping. Two coppers jingle in the pouch hanging from your Twin Belt, but by the end of the day you’re determined to increase the lot to a gold or two. A good card game and a poor ol’ sap is all it takes.
On your way to your regular spot you pass a lovely lady in a fine dress. You may be a ruffian, but with your candid smile you give the lady a tip of your fanciful top hat. She looks flattered, which is a good distraction...because now you’ve got a silver to add to the copper in your pouch.
DETAILS
This bestselling Epic Armoury Twin Belt is a stylish and durable leather belt fashioned from two slimmer belts merged into one. Made from two buffalo-leather straps and stitched together by leather braces in an ornate pattern, this belt has a truly medieval look.
The two braces are fitted with brass D-rings for attaching or suspending bags and other equipment. Usable by a large variety of shapes and sizes due to its long 40 cm belt-tongues and nine punched holes, this belt is a perfect solution for anyone’s kit. With its simple style and rings, the belt is both functional and stylish, and can be used by lords or peasants--no matter race or culture.
Available in Brown, Black, Red, Blue, and Green. One size fits all.

You tighten your Ring Belt another notch, frowning at the watered-down soup over the fire. It’s been a long winter, and you and your family aren’t sure you’re going to have enough food. As you consider ways you might be able to afford some meat--maybe you can do some work for a merchant in town?--there’s an anxious knock on the door.
“Raiders!” shouts the messenger on your doorstep. “Raiders are coming! Every able person is being called to fight!”
Suddenly an empty belly is the least of your worries.
